Lovesick Teenagers

Bear in Heaven : Lovesick Teenagers

"Lovesick teenagers don't ever die, they will live forever."




Nothing really in depth to say about this song, except it reminds me of high school dances, parites, bonfires, summer nights driving around downriver bored out of our minds always trying to find something to do, not realizing that simply driving around being teenagers was more than enough. We'd all meet up in the high school parking lot, sometimes the library parking lot (that was a really dumb idea) doing teenager things, until the cops would show up and we'd all have mini panic attacks. One summer my graduating class would always meet up right by my house, at this baseball field off Lathrop. Everytime the cop would pull up and flash his bright light on us, people would rush to the trash cans and throw out their drinks. Not two seconds after the cops would leave people would be diving in that trash can pulling out whatever they just threw in..... hahaha to be young and stupid again. Honestly, why were we in such a rush to grow up?

My best friend is moving to Chicago tomorrow. Blahhhhh. Michigan is going to get a bit more crappier starting then. I'm going to miss her and our Elizabeth Park dates every summer. We'd just find a spot to sit, watch the water, drink a bottle of wine, and talk about boys. It's always good to have a friend that listens to you, really really listens to you. They aren't worried about the next thing they are going to say, they are worried about you.. genuinely worried and want to listen to what is going on in your life. It's pretty hard to find people like that around here.. and I'm going to miss it more than she knows. Sar, since you creep on me allllllll the time and I know you are reading this right now, I'll just say this-You have no idea how much that summer meant to me when you were there for me when practically no one else was. Leaving the Lake Erie fireworks and listening to "Float On" was probably one of the best memories I'll ever have.... thank you for making me realize as long as I can breathe, I'm going to be okay.


Enjoy the song kiddos. I'm going to go have one last date with my friend before the windy city steals her from me.
